George Byers player profile

Port Vale added former Sheffield Wednesday midfielder George Byers on a three year deal in July 2024. Byers was well-known to manager Darren Moore who was previously manager at Wednesday.

“George is a player who I know really well from my time at Sheffield Wednesday. His energy, drive and quality on the ball will be attributes that are appreciated by our supporters,” Moore told the official website.

“Positive competition in all positions is vital and George will come in and add even stronger competition for places amongst our already-competitive midfield options.”

Appointed vice captain, injuries disrupted Byers’ first season as the Vale won promotion to League One. His second season was also similarly affected by injuries.
